Hole 11 at Onion Creek Club
Par 3 • 219 Yards • Austin, Texas
Onion Creek Club hole 11 presents a demanding mid-length par 3 that tests precision over Austin's rolling terrain. At 219 yards, this straight-forward one-shotter requires a confident tee shot to find the small, well-protected green complex. The elevated tee provides golfers with a commanding view of the target, but the compact putting surface demands accurate club selection and committed execution. With minimal hazards flanking the green, the primary challenge lies in judging distance and wind conditions that can swirl through the Texas Hill Country. The hole's deceptive simplicity makes it a pivotal scoring opportunity in the middle of the round, where a well-struck iron can yield birdie, but anything less than precise leaves a challenging recovery to save par.

This 219-yard par 3 demands precision off the tee. With no landing zone area before the green, you must carry your tee shot all the way to the target - there's no bailout area short of the green.
Bunkers positioned at 207.8 yards create a significant threat just short of this green. With only 11 yards between the bunkers and the back of the green, club selection is critical to clear the sand.
The generous green measuring 5042 square feet (29x30 yards) provides a substantial target. Use this to your advantage by aiming for the center of the green rather than attacking pin positions.
At 219 yards to a par 3, most golfers will need a long iron, hybrid, or fairway wood. Take one extra club to ensure you clear the bunkers at 207.8 yards and don't come up short.
This par 3 is ideal for working on your long iron or hybrid. Launch monitors from $600 let you practice this exact shot with real course data from home.
